To assist physicians, especially young physicians, in identifying tuberculosis (TB) infection before the terminal stage, we analyzed 7 cases of numerous tuberculous granulomas in multiple organs and compared clinical and autopsy findings between cases. Patients ranged in age from 41 to 86 years at the time of death. The main chief complaint was fever of unknown origin (3 of 7 cases [43%]). The ...

We introduce a representation for color texture using unichrome and opponent features computed from Gabor filter outputs. The unichrome features are computed from the spectral bands independently while the opponent features combine information across different spectral bands at different scales. Opponent features are motivated by color opponent mechanisms in human vision. We present a method fo...

The Software Engineering (SE) community has historically focused on working with models to represent functionality and persistence, pushing interaction modelling into the background, which has been covered by the Human Computer Interaction (HCI) community. Recently, adequately modelling interaction, and specifically usability, is being considered as a key factor for success in user acceptance, ...

this paper aims to assess the quality and accuracy aster dems and the arcgis alogorthms used for hydrologic analyses. to this end, first the plan of drainage networks in the region was extracted from aerial photographs and high resolution satellite images and was set as the real ground. in the next step, using the hydrology tool in arcgis software, raster networks of the region for the whole ca...

We report a case of Alexander's disease in a black South African boy of 9 years. The child presented with a grossly abnormal stooped posture, generalised weakness, and slurred nasal speech. Computerised tomography revealed diffuse low radio-density confined to the white matter, and enlarged ventricles. Cerebral biopsy confirmed the diagnosis. The histopathological and electron microscopic featu...

An aspect oriented programming is gaining a lot of popularity these days, there is a growing interest because of crosscutting concerns in object oriented systems. When the aspect oriented features are added into object oriented features the new program needs to be regression tested, and, to reduce the cost, Selection technique is used which eliminates the redundant test cases and thus makes the...
